We all have a picture in our minds of the bulk of those hundreds of thousands who have come off the PUP. We also have some slight sense of the people remaining on the payment being mostly in the arts and entertainment, air, travel and hospitality sectors. Which sectors does the Minister think will remain most in need in this regard? What kind of information is coming into the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform concerning which sectors may remain the most reliant on State supports for a little longer?
